Indianapolis—an American circuit shaped like an oval. This F1 simulation lets you indulge in as many ovals as you please, since, as the name suggests, there’s no other track on offer.
The realism is fairly impressive. Case in point: It’s just as boring as watching an F1 TV show on a Sunday morning.
There are still a few highlights: 3D environments that let you turn around and drive in the wrong direction, an “advanced physics engine” that sends chassis flying and tyres exploding when you collide with rivals, and finally, the replay option to relive your most spectacular pile-ups from every angle.
